Offizone Ltd reserves the right to re-quote prior to commencement of any projects if the site has altered in any way since the time of the original quotation.

Asbestos and any other hazardous materials in ceiling voids etc are to be cleared or reported prior to the fitters’ arrival. Any action that will need to be taken will be quoted for separately.

If the order is cancelled once the goods have been ordered then the goods will be charged for in full. If the order can be cancelled with the manufacturer a handling charge will apply. This is usually in the region of 20% of the value of goods.

If the works to be carried out are cancelled within a 24 hour period prior to the works commencing, then the total value of the order will be charged in full.

If the works are postponed within a 48 hour period prior to the works commencing, the total value of the order will be charged in full plus any storage costs that are incurred. Additional labour charges will be incurred when the work takes place.

An hourly rate per man and any incurred expenses may be charged for any hold-ups where we can not make up the time, within the period of the project, due to no fault of Offizone Ltd. This includes lack of access to rooms, lack of direction/decision from the customer etc.

Any calls back after the agreed time slot will be charged for at the same hourly rate unless work has to be completed outside of normal working business hours i.e. 9-5pm Monday - Friday.

Any installation that requires special hire equipment (over 4.6mtrs) will be subject to an agreed excess labour charge plus the hire of the scaffolding at cost unless otherwise already agreed.

All installation prices are based upon one site visit, unless other terms have previously been agreed.

Fixed power outlets are to be provided by others unless otherwise stated.

Offizone Ltd will remove all their own waste.

All products installed by Offizone Ltd will be guaranteed as per manufacturers’ warranties. Any defects in goods or works must be reported within 5 working days of completion of job. Faults reported after that period will be quoted for. This does not affect your statutory rights.

Payment is due as per quotation. Non payment of any invoice will render the whole account overdue and collectable.

Offizone Ltd reserves the right to charge interest on overdue amounts and an administration charge and/or put the account on hold until all overdue accounts are settled. The law entitles us to charge interest at the Bank of England base rate +8% on all overdue amounts.

An instruction to carry out works on your behalf is construed as acceptance of these terms and conditions unless separate terms have been agreed in writing prior to the start of any works.
